| ‘A host of brave, personal and varyingly successful attempts to create truly unique interiors’ | | – The Designer |
Hybrid Interiors presents twenty-five imaginative interiors where styles, cultures, trends and end uses are mixed and matched. These spaces – from Amsterdam to Rome, from Berlin to Beijing – provide settings for a dialogue between contemporary design and historic preservation, living space and working space, and classic style and popular culture.
The idiosyncratic experiments on the pages of this book provide a rich source of inspiration to those seeking to break away from the overworked catalogue of formulas used in the field of interior design.
This is a vibrant showcase of exuberant interiors that fly in the face of received design opinion – packed with inspiration and ideas for creating unorthodox and surprising environments that play the game of opposites.
Francesco Alberti is a professor with Facoltà di Archittura at the University of Florence. Mario Ciampi has been an architectural photographer for more than twenty-five years. He was the photographer for Tuscany • Artists • Gardens and Tuscany • Artists • Homes, also published by Thames & Hudson.
